Therapy

Schedule a Consultation

Most people we see would benefit from a combination of Psychiatric support and a therapist.  Your provider will work with you to create the right treatment plan for your optimal wellness.  Denver Wellness Associates offers a limited amount of therapy in our office and/or we’ll get you connected with resources that are in your area.

Psychotherapy, or simply “talk therapy,” is the process of healing and growth that can occur when working with a qualified mental health therapist. Regularly talking with a therapist can help you navigate the many ups and downs in life – as well as improve your relationships and quality of life.

The therapy itself may include many different therapeutic approaches, but the aim is always the same: to support and guide you according to your specific treatment goals.

What Might Be Addressed in Therapy

Therapy can be helpful for almost any mental health issue or concern. It can even help you better deal with physical health problems, such as chronic pain or a cancer diagnosis. Any issue that impacts your life may be addressed in therapy.

Psychotherapy is provided by a trained mental health professional. At its most basic, it involves talking openly and honestly about any issue that might be causing you distress.

The following are a few questions meant to help stimulate a productive conversation with your therapist, and to help you delve deeper into potential challenges you may be facing:

  • Is your life appropriately balanced between work, fun, friends, family, self-care, exercise, and other meaningful pursuits?
  • What does a “balanced life” mean to you?
  • How do you balance the various demands on your time and life?
  • On a scale of 1 – 10, do you have more worries or anxiety right now than usual?
  • What are a few things that help reduce your worry or anxiety?

Benefits of Therapy

When you’re in therapy, you gain a better understanding of yourself and can learn new and effective strategies to cope with daily stressors. For example, taking time out each day to indulge in an activity that helps you decompress can be an essential daily mental health break.

Therapy helps you better connect with people and activities in your life. More satisfying relationships with those you deal with on a daily basis can dramatically improve your mood and life satisfaction.

Therapy has been shown to be an effective mental health treatment for issues such as depression, anxiety, eating disorders, and more.

Therapy Tips

If you're considering therapy, there are a few things to keep in mind. First, you should find a provider who understands your needs and is someone you feel comfortable working with. The therapists at Denver Wellness Associates value your needs and comfort, and are eager to provide helpful and compassionate care.

It is also important to be open and honest with your therapist for the most effective and targeted mental health care. Your mental health matters. Don’t be afraid to talk about it with an experienced and compassionate provider.

Please understand that therapy is not a quick fix. It takes time and patience to see results when working with a therapist, like those at Denver Wellness Associates. With persistence and openness, however, therapy can be an incredibly powerful tool for your personal growth and healing.
